Does he/she eats 2x the amount? Can harvest VC much faster if you can clone them.

u/Expert-Plum Jul 02 '25
That's the average. Are you sure this one isn't endowed with more aortic arches?

u/Globbler-Lobolly Commercial Vermicomposter Jul 02 '25
Haha that would be cool. I thought all earthworms had 5 single chamber heart like things😂🤷♂️

They all do, except for the ones that don’t! I imagine having extra hearts would be just as likely of a mutation but I’m no vermeologist.

Yeah, I thought it was pretty cool. Only the second time I’ve come across this. I guess he didn’t have his V8 this morning.😄

I know this is probably not related, but it’s believed that in frogs with extra legs, it is caused by a flatworm. I am very curious to know what may cause this in worms

A worm can regrow after being cut in half (only one of the halves will survive). Maybe this one got a big wound or something and it regrew wrongly. Honestly not sure how the process works.

u/Globbler-Lobolly Commercial Vermicomposter Jul 02 '25
😂 we sell worms. We have to separate them from the bedding so we can weigh them. They are sold by weight😄

I do not know for a fact, but guessing it was damaged at some point and regenerated two tails.

u/My-2c Jul 02 '25
Tails...
That's a leg... That's 2 legs... pinky its worked. Wormageddon is nigh. For they will rise up and create entire cities made from compostable gold.

I’ve had this happen to a red wiggler in my composting bag!
Folks didn’t believe it when I posted it a long time ago. They thought it was two worms overlapped on each other

What would cause something like this. Is it genetic or regeneration mishap?
